The waves, at are Paunch one of the most attractive beaches for surfers says Stab Magazine a digital publication specializing in high performance surfing, Red Frog protesters It reported that Red Frog Bungalows, a resort in Bocas del Toro, organized a protest on Thursday the International Day of the Oceans, “to generate awareness before developers begin to cause irreparable damage.” Stab Magazine contacted Slater, a counselor for the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, an environmental organization that advocates conservation of wildlife and marine ecosystems. Slater commented that a developer “is trying to build a complex with a huge dock right at the main break point in Paunch and it does not make sense. The waves would destroy any dock within a few months and would be in the current wave line.” “The surfers would be trapped on the pier after a wave,” Slater said. http://www.newsroompanama.com/news/panama/world-champ-supports-bocas-surfing-paradise-protest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brundageba Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Money talks. Watch the wharf get built then blown apart on a big swell. Then there will just be debris and everybody gets scr*wed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
